U.S. Donald Trump 2018 Midterms In what promises to be a dramatic split-screen moment just four days away from all-important midterm elections, President Donald Trump will face-off with his immediate predecessor Barack Obama at separate campaign rallies Friday. Trump is set to take the stage in West Virginia to rally for Republican Senate challenger Patrick Morrisey at 4:40 p.m. EDT. Obama, meanwhile, after speaking at 2:30 p.m. in Florida to campaign for Democratic gubernatorial hopeful Andrew Gillum, is set to appear shortly after Trump, at 5 p.m., in Georgia to stump for Stacey Abrams, who is aiming to become the country’s first black female governor. You can watch a live stream for all three events below. Obama spent much of his time since leaving office in January 2017 steering clear of politics and largely avoiding directly taking on the policies of his successor, despite reported urgings from Democrats to jump into the fray. The silence came despite Trump explicitly … [Read more...] about Barack Obama vs. Donald Trump: Watch Live Stream of Rallies As Presidents Go Head-to-Head Before Midterm Elections

By Wayne Allyn Root Did you ever make $10 million? Have you ever lost all $10 million? Could you point directly to the fingerprints of one president who caused you to lose it all? Well then I have one heck of a story for you! Former President Obama is so green with envy at Trump’s economic success, it’s funny to watch! I’ll tell you my personal story in a minute that explainseverything. First, a look at the remarkable success of President Trump. Trump did something even my hero President Ronald Reagan never did. I wrote a column weeks ago reporting that President Trump had produced the rare feat of higher GDP (4.2%) than unemployment (3.9%). Reagan produced the greatest economic expansion in history, but even he never produced a single year of higher GDP than unemployment. Compare that to Obama, who is the only president in the history of America to never produce a single year of 3% or higher GDP. Since George Washington that’s never before happened. I also … [Read more...] about A Personal Story of the Obama Economy vs Trump Economy

COMEDY 09/11/2018 02:44 am ET "They couldn’t be more different. It’s like night and day, like ebony and anarchy." By Carla Baranauckas Certain questions provoke lots of debate, even when there’s no real way to resolve them. Could LeBron James have beaten Michael Jordan on the basketball court? Could Mike Tyson have defeated Muhammad Ali in the boxing ring? A new question was added to that category over the weekend when former President Barack Obama returned to the stump to campaign for Democrats in the midterm elections: Could Donald Trump have beaten Obama in an election for president? “It’s on,” Trevor Noah said on Monday’s broadcast of “The Daily Show.” ”President Obama vs. President Trump, the leader vs. the tweeter, yes we can vs. way too tan.” “Seeing Trump and Obama back to back really shows the contrast between these two. Right?” Noah added. “They couldn’t be more … [Read more...] about Obama vs. Trump: Trevor Noah Makes The Call

White House But on Friday, at least, the current president barely mustered a response to the blistering critique leveled against him by his predecessor. URBANA, Ill. — Barack Obama went hard. Donald Trump hardly responded. Friday was the day Republicans and Democrats and pretty much every reporter and political obsessive have been dreaming of — the two presidents who couldn’t be more different, who are both the throbbing hearts of their own bases and the nightmare of the others’ — going head to head. Story Continued Below Two months before the midterms that are existential for both of their visions of the future, Obama unleashed for the first time with an indictment of Trump and Republicans that stopped just short of calling them traitors to the American ideal. Trump, who’s been swiping at Obama on Twitter and other appearances almost every chance he gets and months ago said Democrats who didn’t clap for his state of the union address had … [Read more...] about Obama vs. Trump: The clash everyone’s waited for arrives

President Donald Trump will, most likely, soon be nominated for and awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. He has facilitated face-to-face meetings with South Korea and North Korea that are leading to the long-desired peace brokering between the two countries. Further, Kim Jong Un agreed to return three American hostages, stop missile testing and may be willing to give up North Korea's nuclear weapons -- all because of Trump's strong-willed, forceful diplomacy toward North Korea. What did former President Barack Obama do to earn his Nobel Peace Prize, for which he was nominated just 11 days after he took office? Nothing. -- Dennis G. Ortega, Woodburn … [Read more...] about Nobel Peace Prize — Obama vs. Trump: Letter to the editor
